2014 is drawing to a close and we wanted to reflect on the year, what went well and what didn't go so well for us.

As we mentioned in our last blog entry, the day before Christmas Eve, I had to put my best furry friend and constant companion Enzo to sleep do to illness and around Thanksgiving one of my landladies ranch dogs, Bud had to be put to sleep. Two very sad events and I'd say the worst parts of 2014.

Happy Holidays to all of you, no matter which holiday you celebrate!! The holiday season is in full swing, people are filling the malls and stores to buy gifts to exchange for whatever holiday they celebrate. During this time of giving, we felt it important to share our views on the holidays and no this isn't going to be a religious post.
